250G Polythene Bags
Clear Poly Bags (30% Recycled) — Product Overview
These clear polythene bags are supplied in a heavier-duty 250g / 64 micron (64mu) film and include 30% recycled content. They are designed for straightforward, protective packing where visibility of the contents matters—helping you identify items quickly while keeping them clean and contained. The bags are supplied paper wrapped to help keep packs tidy in storage and during handling.
Because this is a configurable product listing, the exact dimensions and pack quantities can vary by option. Please select the variant that matches your required size and pack.
Key Features
Clear presentation: Transparent film helps with fast identification, picking, and quality checks without opening the bag.
Heavier-duty 250g / 64mu film: A thicker gauge suited to more demanding packing tasks where extra strength and puncture resistance are beneficial.
30% recycled content: Incorporates recycled material while maintaining a practical, everyday packing format.
Paper wrapped packs: Packs are paper wrapped to keep bags together and easier to store, count, and issue to packing benches.
Versatile protection: Helps protect products from dust, light handling marks, and general contamination during storage and transit.

Clear Poly Bags (30% Recycled) — Full Product Guide
Clear polythene bags are a staple packaging choice across warehousing, manufacturing, retail, and e-commerce. This range combines a clear finish with a heavier 250g / 64mu film and 30% recycled content, offering a practical balance of visibility, protection, and durability. Below is a detailed guide to help you choose the right option and use it effectively in day-to-day packing operations.
How It Works
These bags provide a simple protective barrier around your product. Items are placed inside the bag to keep them contained and shielded from dust and handling. The clear film supports quick identification—useful for picking, stock checks, and quality control—while the thicker gauge helps the bag hold up better during routine handling.
Depending on your process, bags can be used as a primary protective layer (directly around the product) or as a secondary layer (grouping multiple items together before placing them into an outer carton, mailer, or tote).
Materials and Construction
The bags are made from polythene film specified as 250g / 64 micron (64mu). Micron is a common way to describe film thickness; a higher micron value generally indicates a thicker, more robust film. This listing also specifies 30% recycled content, meaning a portion of the material is derived from recycled sources.
The product is supplied paper wrapped, which helps keep packs organised and can make it easier to store and dispense bags at a packing station.
Understanding the Specification (Plain English)
- Clear: You can see the contents without opening the bag.
- 250g / 64mu: A thicker film intended for more demanding use than lighter-gauge bags.
- 30% recycled: Includes recycled material content.
- Paper wrapped: Packs are bundled with paper wrapping for tidier handling and storage.
Choosing the Right Size (Without Guesswork)
When selecting a bag size, aim for a comfortable fit rather than a tight one. Consider:
- Product width and height: Allow clearance so items slide in easily.
- Bulk and shape: Irregular shapes, sharp corners, or bulky items may require extra room.
- How you close the bag: If you plan to fold over the top or apply a closure, allow additional length.
- Single item vs. multipack: Kitting multiple items together often needs more internal space.
If you are unsure, test with a small quantity first or choose the next size up to reduce packing friction and speed up throughput.
Floor Type Compatibility (Warehouse & Packing Environments)
These bags are suitable for typical packing environments including:
- Warehouse packing benches and despatch areas
- Manufacturing lines for parts protection and kitting
- Retail back-of-house stock rooms
- Office or print-room storage for documents and materials
For high-volume operations, consider how bags will be stored and dispensed. Paper wrapped packs can help keep stock neat and reduce time spent separating loose bags.
Health and Safety
As with many packaging films, safe handling practices are important:
- Keep away from children: Plastic bags can present a suffocation hazard.
- Workplace housekeeping: Prevent loose film from accumulating on floors to reduce slip risk.
- Sharp edges: If packing sharp or pointed items, consider additional internal protection to reduce puncture risk.
- Storage: Keep packs clean and dry to maintain presentation and usability.
Ideal Applications and Use Cases
The combination of clarity and a thicker gauge makes these bags a strong choice for:
- Parts and components: Keeping items clean, grouped, and easy to identify.
- Textiles and soft goods: Protecting from dust and handling marks while maintaining visibility.
- Printed materials: Keeping leaflets, manuals, and inserts together and protected.
- General storage: Organising stock in bins, shelves, and totes.
- Despatch preparation: Bagging items before placing into cartons or outer packaging.
Maintenance, Cleaning and Care
These bags are intended as packaging consumables. To keep them in best condition before use:
- Store in a clean, dry area away from excessive heat.
- Keep packs in their paper wrapping until needed to reduce dust and improve organisation.
- Rotate stock (first-in, first-out) to keep packing materials fresh and consistent.
Case Study (Example Workflow)
Scenario: A small manufacturing and fulfilment operation needs to keep assembled kits clean and easy to identify during staging.
- Operators place each kit into a clear bag so contents can be verified at a glance.
- The thicker 64mu film helps the bag withstand handling as kits move between assembly, QC, and despatch.
- Packs remain paper wrapped at the bench, helping keep the work area tidy and reducing time spent separating loose bags.
Result: Faster visual checks, cleaner presentation, and fewer issues caused by dust or mixed components.

- Warehouses and fulfilment teams needing clear, durable bagging for day-to-day packing
- Manufacturers and assemblers who kit parts and want quick visual verification
- Retail stock rooms organising items for replenishment
- Any operation that benefits from a thicker-gauge clear bag with recycled content
